CSS – Blurring image with un-blurred text

I have div elements that are 200px tall and 200px wide, and I am filling each div element with an image of a person.

Upon hovering on the image, I want the image to be blurred, but I simultaneously want text to appear on the image (unblurred) that gives a description of who they are. Does anyone know how to do this?

So far, this is what I am getting: enter image description here

Here is the CSS code:

.mem1 {
  height: 200px;
  width: 200px;
  margin: 0px 31px;
  display: inline-block;
  border-radius: 10px;
  border: solid;
  border-width: thin;
  border-color: #d6d6d6;
  background-image: url(members/giles.png);
}

.mem1 p {
  text-align: center;
  position: absolute;
  margin: 70px 30px;
  visibility: hidden;
}

.mem1:hover {
  -webkit-filter: blur(2px);
}

.mem1:hover p {
  text-align: center;
  position: absolute;
  margin: 70px 30px;
  color: #ffffff;
  text-shadow: 1px 1px #000000;
  -webkit-filter: blur(0px);
  visibility: visible;
}

  .service {
    border: 2px solid $primary;
    border-radius: 10px;
    padding: 15px;
    height: 250px;
    background-color: white;
    transform: scale(1);
    transition: box-shadow 0.3s;
    overflow: hidden;
    cursor: pointer;
    position: relative;
    &:hover {
      box-shadow: 0 12px 15px gray;
      &::after {
        content: 'photo text';
        color: $primary;
        font-size: 22px;
        
        position: absolute;
        left: 50%;
        top: 50%;
        transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
        align-content: center;
        height: 100%;
        width: 100%;
        backdrop-filter: blur(2px);
      }
    }

If you are trying to map and generate multi-elements with this option, you can use ::after and give it height and with of 100%. Then give use backdrop-filter: blur(2px).

.parent{

}

.text-child{
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;

    height: 100%;
    display: flex;
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;
    opacity: 0;
    transition: all .3s ease;
    z-index: 1;

Here is a code snippet that does what you are looking for - blurring an image when you mouse over it, while simultaneously showing a textual description.

The key is that you need to use the :hover pseudoclass on the div, then when the div is hovered, you blur the image only, and show the description text span.

.blur {
  width: 350px;
  height: 350px;
}

.blur img {
  -webkit-transition: all 1s ease;
     -moz-transition: all 1s ease;
       -o-transition: all 1s ease;
      -ms-transition: all 1s ease;
          transition: all 1s ease;
}

.blur span {
    -webkit-transition: all 1s ease;
     -moz-transition: all 1s ease;
       -o-transition: all 1s ease;
      -ms-transition: all 1s ease;
          transition: all 1s ease;
}
 
.blur:hover img {
  -webkit-filter: blur(5px);
}

.blur span {
    opacity: 0;
    position: absolute;
    top: 30px;
    left: 30px;
}

.blur:hover span {
    opacity: 1;
}
<div class="blur pic">
  <img src="https://placeholdit.imgix.net/~text?txtsize=33&txt=350%C3%97350&w=350&h=350">
  <span>This is a photo of something.</span>
</div>

As @DA explained you need to get a parent container involved. Here's a working fiddle using your example code: https://jsfiddle.net/m25gkqkL/1/

<div class="parent">
    <div class="mem1"></div>
    <p>Hello World!</p>
</div>

.mem1 {
  height: 200px;
  width: 200px;
  margin: 0px 31px;
  display: inline-block;
  border-radius: 10px;
  border: solid;
  border-width: thin;
  border-color: #d6d6d6;

  background-image: url(members/giles.png);
  z-index: 1;/* added */
  position: relative;/* added */
}

.parent {/* added this */
    position: relative;
    height: 200px;
    width: 262px;
}

.parent p {/* modified */
  text-align: center;
  position: absolute;
  visibility: hidden;
  top: 50%;/* modified */
  margin-top: -0.5em;/* added */
  width: 262px;/* added */
  z-index: 2;/* added */
}

.parent:hover .mem1 {/* modified */
  -webkit-filter: blur(2px);
}

.parent:hover p {/* modified */
  color: #ffffff;
  text-shadow: 1px 1px #000000;
  -webkit-filter: blur(0px);
  visibility: visible;
}

It sounds like the text is a child of the element that you are blurring. You can't do that. You need to do something like this:

<div class="container">
    <div class="blurredPhoto"></div>
    <div class="text">Your Text</div>
</div>

.container {
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
    position: relative;
} 

.blurredPhoto {
    position: absolute;
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
}

.text {
    position: absolute;
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
}

Then apply your blurring logic only to the .blurredPhoto object.
